Mellor

Amanda’s cousin, Jed Rawson, decided he wanted to stop and see Washington. He made the arrangements to stay with Dennis and Gwen in Springfield. We went up for Thursday. We had a busy little day. We visited the Capitol, Library of Congress, National Archives, Air and Space Smithsonian, Natural History Smithsonian, Washington Temple, FDR Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, Washington Monument, and I am sure there is something I missed. Oh we did stop at the White House too. It was a busy day and you can see that in the photos.

In other news, Ross Andra had a pretty major heart attach at church last week in Salt Lake City. I am not sure what doctrine they were teaching but it definitely knocked him over.

I received a phone call last weekend from Iona Mellor in Anaheim, California. She is my cousin as a daughter of Otto Andra. It was good to visit with her for more than an hour. I sent off some group sheets to her so she could return them to me with some more information. I look forward to hearing back from her.

I posted a blog earlier on the Presidential debate. Talk about a few people nipping at me since! Geez. Relax a little people.

Tomorrow I spend the day working at the National Genealogical Society’s convention here in Richmond. That should definitely be interesting. The church made quite a few announcements for it. They are literally about to move a mountain! The Granite Mountain!
